The Demi is up for a third poll!

This will probably be the last poll, and only minor changes will be made before the final version is put on the site.

Remember to keep all comments helpful and constructive. :)

i wonder when the final decision is made. somehow can't wait for it.

as sidenote:
"bunnies aren't supposed to look chubby are they?"
eh... havn't seen a single bunny (except "real rabits" ... the ones in the fields) that did not look chubby in some way...
they do not look slender, so they?

Nuuuu! The demi will never be the cute thing it was. I just hope it won't turn out like the Kanis did. shudder bunnies aren't supposed to look chubby are they?

I like the revamp's body, and shading, and such, but I DO wish the face and expression were more similar to the original Demi's.

I like everything but the lack of happiness. Where's the smile when you need it crys

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I think this revamp is stunning. It looks much more realistic than the original, and the shading is just beautiful. I do agree that maybe it should be smiling just a little bit, but I think that the artist has done so much already to make everyone happy that I don't want to be nitpicky.

I don't think the revamp leans towards looking like a particular gender, or has a pre-set personality. I think it leaves the owner with all the freedom they need to create an original character out of their pet. I would love for my Kirei to look like this and I hope the demi gets revamped soon.

I must say I like this version much better than the old one. The shading and the more realistic rendering are stunning.

I've been considering elixir'ing Augie into a demi, and if this is what they're going to end up looking like, I have no further doubts -thumbs up-

Although... it really ought to be smiling... D8

It's so pretty. I love it.

I love the new one a little more because the shading is just great!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I know I sound rude and stuff.... Sorry. Most of the art is great, but it's just in my opinion that I don't like this...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I absolutely HATE, I repeat HATE the new design. 0_0 I don't want my poor Mintaroo to look like that! It looks stupid. (Just an opinion) I don't want to be harsh to the artists cause most of their art is great, but I just think this is terrible.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

This new Demi looks so sad, perhaps a happy face would do it good ^^

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I personally prefer the old Demi, because..... to me the new ones all look round and feminine. I like the way the old ones are all spiky. I suppose there is a bit of bias in this, as I have a male Demi, but.... go ahead, make your choices everyone.

I keep voting for the old demi drawing, because the new versions seem to take away that "exotic" look about them.

I chose the old one because of the cute smile and the style.
I dunno, it has something loveable :3

i prefer the old demi. If they changed the rest but left the eyes it would be okay. I really chose the demi because of it's eyes and mischevious smile and i would hate if those were gone.

I think both the new and old is just darling plus the other two redraws? May K ask who is redrawing it?
We need there to be redraws so pets can be drawn in all the colors consistantly.

Heyyyy! I was voter ! Haha xD
Still like the new Demi, and it's looking pretty good. ^^
The hairs on the chest and inside the ears and shaggy parts would look more realistic if they were pointed.
You know me and my realism. Hah. o.o;
Dunno who's drawing these, but great work and WAO, kudos on your patience. O_O

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

i like this one better that revamp option 2.
his eyes fits the demi better.

but indeed, the smile is missing.

i think the ears are less cute than the old demi, and somehow less fitting.

(i'm not sure whether 'fitting' is the good word in this phrase, but i hope you'll understand what i mean)

i wouldnt mind if this demi was going to be the next revamp. BUT, it really needs a smile.

Flikkan, that is /really/ rude. Real people draw these pets and I'm sure they don't appreciate that comment. The news said constructive criticism, and that's not being very constructive.



I for one think the new demi is a very beautiful pet and I hope it's revamped very soon as I'd like to turn my pet Irvin into one.

I do like this one a lot better then the first one. I just miss the smile.Not sure what but something about the tail still bothers me about it. I might be fussy because demis were one of my favourites and what got me started on subeta in the first place, but in this revamp its the smile and the tail that bothers me most. As I said I don't know what it is but the tail just bothers me =/

This one's better than the other re-draws I've seen .. but the face still seems way too flat and it really bothers me. Demis have always been one of my favorite pets, but I just think it looks a bit odd. I can't quite place what it is though.

I actually prefer the combination of the eyes' and the mouth's expression in the new revamp.

It appears to be saying: WUT?

And I love it. xD

well this version is certainly much better than the first one the only thing that still bothers me a bit is that the legs and the tail are a bit far from the body unlike the old demi.Oh and I think the tail might look cuter if it was a bit shorter and bigger at the end like the old one (if that made any sense X3)

I personally think that the eyes are funky. I like the old eyes better. I like it other than that.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Hopes Tsume is still around to read this The thing that is still keeping me from voting for this new version is the triangular shape of the eyes. I think a rounder shape will help it regain the feel of the original Demi design.

I still prefer the old one but that's partly because I had a parade of demi's for a while. This one is much closer to the original than the first and second redraws. thumbs up Good job Tsume (uh I forget your new name).

My biggest objection to the new design is the eyes. They are too wide vertically and we lose that nice almond shape that they have in the old design. Also, the shoulders seem a bit too wide.

yes the new demi is beautiful but I love how the old one looks cute be dangerous because of how if fur is and how pointy is all round figure is, but he's so innocent at the same time :3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

The thing about the smile...
People were not complaining while it was still there (or at least i havn't seen a single one) but they where, when its gone. XD

I like the middle way that "redlined"
that isn't actually a smile, more like a neutral mouth.
this one looks like it's mouth is frowning... but not the eyes.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

Old Demi!! strikes

It looks far more innocent (the old one) Where I think the new one is adding some more realistic characters to the subeta family. I mean, we all came here for cute pets, and we should keep 'em cute! (Unless your a bloodred sort, or mutant...)

I hope dawn doesn't get changed to orange and pink...the clashing is so horrible and I hope they keep the lovely colours of the field demi!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by Deleted User

I love it--that's all I have to say This demi is the BEST DEMI IN THE WHOLE WORLD. I can't wait to see it in all the colors!

Poor artist(s)! I'm not sure whether the versions of the demi were drawn by more than one person or not, nor do I know who drew them, but I do know that you must have an incredible amount of patience to keep redrawing over and over again!

Since there is so much confusion over which demi is best, perhaps instead of putting only two versions of demi in each poll, just put all of the versions into one? Then it would be easy to tell which of the many versions is most popular.

I like this new one! It's cute! Tobe honest, I hated the first redraw, and the second still bothered me a little, but this one is MUCH better, just from the little details that were changed. I do agree that this one's expression might be a bit too... somber compared to the original (which happens to suit my demi perfectly, but I can see why others are upset) so perhaps giving it a slight smirk would be the way to go, and I dunno... maybe lower its left eybrow (like it's quirking the right) to give it more of a bemused kind of character to its face.

In any case, I think the redraw has come a long way and I would not mind in the least if this one were to go through as is. A good job to everyone involved, I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates the tremendous amount of work that has been put into this redraw. Thank you!

I like it, but I think the eyes coming to a point makes it look a bit strange. Maybe round them out a bit? I also thing that the chest kind of just sticks out too much, maybe it would look better if the stomach was a little more filled in. I do feel bad for the people who have demis and spent a lot on them but don't like the new look, and it should be taken into consideration that many of the people voting don't have demis.

Meow: Then they can just...not make a demi?^^ But I guess the smile isn't /that/ important. As for the tale, it looks a little stiff, but I don't mind it anymore.

I see a several slight problems, but nothing that absolutely must be changed, just things I've noticed.

My major peeve is the "elbow" of the closest foreleg. The way the fluff is positioned and the closeness of the hind leg, I cannot help but see a fold in the stomach, giving the demi a rather horrible pot belly.

As well, the shadow on the muzzle to me seems to give the idea of a smile, the curve looks like it is following an upturned mouth. Right now it looks awkward, as the mouth is not smiling and the muscles are.

The feet also don't seem flat on the ground, both front feet are slightly twisted in. Adding a bit more of a paw, rather than having the bottom of the arm slope evenly to the tip of the toes would be helpful.

I love the furry shadows, those are a great improvement. The horn is cute. It is nicely androgynous, though I think a slight smile wouldn't be out of place. Most pets have a default of "Happy" and I don't think that is a bad thing. Applying your own personality is important, but you will never satisfy everyone and I'll guess more people have their demi's with a happy (or at least capable of smiling) attitude than with blank slightly frightened expression as it has now.

I'm also not sure if I like the position of the three dots on the hind leg, but I don't know quite how to fix that as the pose is so different (that is, anatomically correct) from the original to this version.

Lastly, the fur on the tail goes backwards at the bottom, that seems awfully... Weird.

I hope I don't seem harsh, I really do like this version (never saw the attraction of the old demi), but I'm trying to give the artist a few things to think about. Getting rid of those little tiny irritants that prevent people from getting a pet (in my case, it would be the pot belly) is important. I'm a great nitpick, that's why I rarely draw myself.

It is fantastic overall, keep up the great art. =)
